Chart notes

MOONLIGHT MAX was reluctant to load then settled along the inside early before gearing up on the turn and angled out into the lane to rally in time. APOLLO'S FURY was rushed to the lead and opened up early, maintaining the advantage into the lane then shortened stride and was caught inside the final eighth. PERICLES got off a step slowly then moved into contention while five wide and was gaining late. STAR STRUMMER hesitated to load into the gate then broke sharply and settled before being asked into the lane but was outfinished. CATALINA CLASSIC had a rail trip early and was ridden along into the turn but was empty in the stretch. READY TO RIDE was void of early speed then drifted out at the 3/8 pole and was no factor.
